John conducted our tour and did a superb job entertaining and giving personal insight into his studies of this infamous murderer. Dressed in a period long jacket and bowling hat, he led us through the Whitechapel area where the murders occurred 125 years ago. The handheld projector was a superb touch! Take this tour, you won't be disappointed!

Wanting to do something a bit different I decided to book this tour - at just £9 it was excellent value. We met the group outside the station and the tour soon began. Our guide was excellent and took us around the various sites describing the story. She had fantastic knowledge and really knew her stuff. She was a great... More

Absolutely loved this tour, booked it based on all the great reviews so I knew it would be good but far better than we thought! The guide was so interesting and the ripper vision made it so easy to transport yourself back to 1880s. We really got absorbed in the story and proper enjoyed every minute.

My friend and I had an amazing tour with Richard last night. It's a long (fast paced) walk and the tour lasted 2 hours but it was absolutely brilliant. A fascinating insight into a truly gruesome killer! The "Rippervision" was a great way to show such a large group pictures. I would highly recommend this tour!!

Start your tour with a swift Pint in 'The White Hart' pub which is 20 yards right from the exit of the Aldgate East tube station. You will learn some interesting history and what this pubs connection is to JTR later in your tour. This tour is a test of your stamina, it's very fast paced but you'll build up... More

Well worth the 2 hours spent wondering around and getting the gory details of Jack the Ripper. Richard, our guide, was enthusiastic and really got the mood going. Be prepared to walk (not so much) and see the old sites. Really excellent value for money. Easy to book online ...You won't be disappointed

My 2 friends and I had an excellent time on the tour led by Elizabeth. She was very knowledgeable and presented all the information in a great, entertaining way. I will not spoil what Rippervision is, but it did add to the tour, as did the pictures she showed at numerous stops. I had no idea that Jack the Ripper... More

Two of my friends and I were booked on to the tour for the evening of 24th April 2013. The booking process was easy and I was surprised how far ahead the booking were! They must be popular! I would've liked may be a little more follow-up from the site in the month or so leading up to our tour.... More

I can't recommend this tour enough! From the costumed guide through the winding and eerie streets of Jacks old stomping ground to his ability to talk for nearly 2 hours. The guide expertly transported us back in time to the squalor of Victorian London, painting vivid descriptions if the events of The late 1800's. The Ripper vision was a nice... More
